Col. Vincent Mysliwiec, a sleep medicine specialist with 121st Combat Support Hospital, Brian Allgood Army Community Hospital in Yongsan, South Korea, strongly discourages looking at the clock while sleeping. By removing all those distractions, people can turn their bed back into a place to sleep. It is about creating a peaceful, good sleeping environment and keeping to the same sleep schedule, said Mysliwiec. If people value their sleep, they need to put time and effort into planning things such as how to make their bed and room temperature comfortable, and ensuring they have a sleep ritual to help them unwind a little bit. They need that relaxation period because the brain doesn’t turn off instantaneously. (Courtesy photo by 8th Army)
